Chapter 177 Water and Fire Join Forces
"People can be good or bad, and so can elves! I believe Narcissus and Snow Crystal are good elves!"

Facing Li Xunhuan's questioning, Zhu Chengwu took the rare opportunity to reply.

Even for the sake of Yang Lei Zhen Yan, Zhu Chengwu chose to help Narcissus and Xue Jingling, but before he successfully achieved the status of a grandmaster and became invincible in the world, Zhu Chengwu still did not want to completely stand against the mainstream of humanity.

Although Zhu Chengwu's explanation is weak, many times all humans need is a thin fig leaf.

In the face of Zhu Chengwu's powerful strength and the possibility of being above the master, with a thin fig leaf, many people will choose to "understand" and "identify" with Zhu Chengwu.

Honestly speaking, Zhu Chengwu didn't want to stand on the side of Narcissus and Xue Jingling, but the human Grandmaster Fang Yangshen, on whom he had high hopes, had no news about Yang Lei Zhenyan, while Narcissus, as their enemy, could provide it.

Everything is fate!
"Marquis Fu'an, don't think you can cover up your treacherous and despicable behavior by saying this!"

Wanwan, who rushed nearby, was furious!

Because she had used forbidden techniques to break through the Snow Crystal Spirit's defenses and her combat power was greatly reduced, in order to avoid not only being unable to help but also distracting her master Zhu Yuyan's energy, Wanwan did not force her way too close to the main battlefield of Narcissus and Zhu Chengwu after she found that she could not catch up with the Millennium Ice Soul.

Therefore, Wanwan, who had just achieved the status of Grandmaster and whose combat power had been greatly reduced, was the first one to arrive at Xue Jingling except for Zhu Chengwu, Duke Yan and others.

This is also the reason why Wanwan, Murong Qiudi and others did not choose to stay by the side of the Snow Crystal Spirit who had no power to resist after "capturing" it, but instead chased the Snow Crystal Spirit's companion spirit and kept getting closer to the main battlefield of Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus.

Otherwise, if Wanwan, Murong Qiudi and others stayed where they were and guarded Xue Jingling after "capturing" her, how could Zhu Chengwu have the opportunity to save her easily.

In response to Wanwan's scolding, Zhu Chengwu just glanced at her indifferently without any response.

"Narcissus, I'll take Xue Jingling, and you take Long Fei! Let's go~~"

Zhu Chengwu said this as he looked at the Narcissus that was approaching rapidly.

Because of the characteristics of the spirit of heaven and earth and the strength of the peak Yang God, Narcissus's speed was not slower than Zhu Chengwu who was using "A World Away" with all his strength, and he quickly arrived nearby.

Of course, the speed of the powerful masters behind Narcissus, such as Zhu Yuyan and Fan Qinghui, is not slow at all.

He followed closely behind Narcissus and was not left behind by her.

There are too many Grandmaster Yang Shens on the scene, and many of them are powerful.

Even if Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus joined forces, they would not be able to win the battle.

What's more, Zhu Chengwu chose to help Narcissus only for Yang Lei Zhenyan, it was impossible for him to really fight to the death for Narcissus without reservation.

"it is good!"

Narcissus, who was flying towards Zhu Chengwu and Xue Jingling, flickered her eyes and agreed.

Even if the Yang Lei Zhen Yan was used to make Zhu Chengwu change his position, Narcissus knew that it was impossible and impossible to ask Zhu Chengwu to help him kill the human master Yang Shen who was present.

Moreover, Narcissus also understood why Zhu Chengwu wanted to take Xue Jingling with him and let him take Long Fei.

Long Fei is useless to Narcissus. Only Xue Jingling is Zhu Chengwu's only guarantee to prevent Narcissus from breaching the contract before he gets the Yang Lei Zhenyan.

After getting Narcissus's promise, Zhu Chengwu finally reached out and pulled out Murong Qiudi's sword that had nailed Xue Jingling to the ground.

"We must not let Marquis Fu'an get the Yang Lei Zhenyan again!"

Seeing Zhu Chengwu's actions, and seeing that Narcissus and Zhu Chengwu were about to meet and had reached a consensus on evacuation, the anxious Duke Yan roared, and the forbidden technique in his body burst out, and he attacked fiercely.

This trip to Nanzhu Kingdom not only failed to obtain the high-level rare treasures of the world in Nanzhu Kingdom, but also allowed Zhu Chengwu to learn the news about the Yang Lei Zhenyan that he specifically requested. This was unacceptable from the standpoint of Duke Yan.

Duke Yan must take advantage of the opportunity when there are so many human Grand Master Yangshen on the scene and Zhu Chengwu chooses to help the alien elves Narcissus and Snow Crystal Spirit to keep Zhu Chengwu.

Otherwise, if Zhu Chengwu was allowed to evacuate safely, then he and the crown prince's family...

"Lotus Fire God, Blazing Sun Fire, All Things Burn to Ashes!"

"The pure water is brilliant, freezing the heaven and earth, destroying everything in the world!"

Duke Yan's words and outburst had no effect on Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus.

Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus, who had not yet fully reunited, had already gathered their energy and prepared their ultimate moves.

"Water and fire are merciless, and the world will be destroyed!"

By the time Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus were completely reunited, the two were like comrades-in-arms with extremely tacit understanding. They combined their water and fire moves as if they had practiced countless times, forming a devastating move that was greater than the sum of its parts.

This was based on the tacit understanding between Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus regarding each other's strength and combat methods in previous battles.

The combination of the supreme master's combat power and the peak Yang God's combat power, the coordination of three high-level treasures of heaven and earth, the sublimation of the mutual generation and mutual restraint of water and fire...

The power of Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus' combined ultimate move made the spiritual senses of many Yangshen masters present at the scene beat violently, and they suddenly felt that their lives were in danger.

This is also true for powerful masters like Zhu Yuyan, Fan Qinghui, and Bai Shan.

The huge sense of threat forced the many Grandmaster Yang Shens who were constantly approaching to stop and defend themselves with all their might.

"Demon aura!"

"The sword's heart is clear!"

"Reincarnation Realm!"

……

A variety of special skills, either in the form of attack and collision, or with all-out self-defense, are used to resist the continuous influx of explosive water and fire energy.

The ultimate move of Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus was too powerful. Zhu Yuyan, Fan Qinghui, Baishan and other powerful masters who were still a certain distance away from Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus were fine. They just had their blood boiling and their internal energy consumed, and at most suffered minor injuries. However, Wanwan and Duke Yan who were very close to Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus were in trouble.

Especially Wanwan, because of her master Zhu Yuyan, and Duke Yan, because of their different positions, tried their best to stop Zhu Chengwu from leaving.

When the moves collided, the powerful aftermath immediately caused Wanwan and Duke Yan, who had no strength left to respond, to vomit blood and fly backwards.

The blazing fire and the icy water energy caused Wanwan and Duke Yan's internal organs to rupture and their meridians to be severed.

With such serious injuries, even with the extraordinary nature of a grandmaster, Wanwan and Duke Yan were temporarily disabled.

When the water and fire dissipated and everything was settled, everyone looked at each other in surprise as they watched Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus disappear in the distance.

"We can't let Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus get away like this?" Someone present looked at the almost disappearing shadows of Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus, roared, and chased after them.

But more Grandmaster Yang Shen just roared, without any intention of moving to chase.

Some Grandmaster Yang Shen didn't even roar to express their anger, but just looked deeply at Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus who were gradually going away.

The fighting power displayed by Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus after joining forces is too strong!

Even if the other Grandmasters and Yang Shens on the scene fully cooperated, they would at least have to be prepared for half of the casualties to successfully surround and kill Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus. But could these Grandmasters and Yang Shens on the scene fully cooperate and fight under the threat of at least half of the casualties?
After constantly questioning their inner selves, most of the Grandmasters present felt that it was impossible!
That's why they either just roared and encouraged others to chase Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus without moving at all, or they just watched Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus leave without saying a word.

However, those few Grandmaster Yangshen who had chased Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus in a fit of rage, after chasing for a distance, realized that they were the only ones chasing them, and they cursed inwardly and silently stopped chasing.

With just a few of them, let alone the question of whether they can catch up with Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus, even if they do, they will just be a waste of effort and serve Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus.

……

"Senior Shuixian, I wonder where the place where the Yang Lei Zhen Yan you mentioned was born is?"

Outside the capital of Nanzhu Kingdom, on an ordinary little hill, Zhu Chengwu "supported" Xue Jingling, looked at Narcissus with deep eyes, and asked.

"Marquis Fu'an, are you so impatient?" Narcissus put down Dai Qian in his hand and looked at Zhu Chengwu with a smile.

"Senior Narcissus, I am indeed impatient, but you may not have much time!"

As Zhu Chengwu spoke, he increased the strength with which he was "supporting" Xue Jingling.

The Snow Crystal Spirit, who was already seriously injured, groaned in pain.

"Crystal Spirit~~"

Dai Qian, who had just been put down by Narcissus and was standing aside, saw Xue Jingling's painful expression and cried out anxiously.

However, Dai Qian knew that he was no match for Zhu Chengwu, and Zhu Chengwu would not listen to him, so he could not save Xue Jingling. Therefore, Dai Qian could only turn his pleading eyes to Narcissus beside him.

However, Dai Qian didn't know that when Zhu Chengwu used force and Xue Jingling groaned in pain, Narcissus was also feeling uneasy.

This unrest was caused by the fact that Narcissus had not yet completely given up on Snow Crystal Spirit, and also because of the unusual movement of Jade Marrow Ice Soul.

In the palace of the Nanzhu Kingdom, the reason why Narcissus said so much and kept trying to instigate Zhu Chengwu to rebel was ultimately because of Jadeite Ice Soul.

The moment Narcissus got the Jadeite Ice Soul, he sensed the Jadeite Ice Soul's firm will and urgency to save the Snow Crystal Spirit.

After all, the Snow Crystal Spirit is the companion spirit of the Jadeite Ice Soul. The two have been together since birth, and they have a deep relationship and a strong bond.

In order to make the Jadeite Ice Soul Spirit willingly serve Narcissus, Narcissus had to meet the requirements of the Jadeite Ice Soul Spirit and rescue the Snow Crystal Spirit!
Therefore, in the palace of Nanzhu Kingdom, Narcissus kept interrupting and trying to incite Zhu Chengwu to rebel.

Because under the circumstances at that time, only by inciting Zhu Chengwu to rebel could Narcissus have a chance to save Xue Jingling.

The other people in the field simply do not have the fighting power that Zhu Chengwu has.

As an alien species, it is difficult for Narcissus to mobilize the human master Yangshen multiple times at the same time.

"Marquis Fu'an, since you want the Yang Lei True Flame, you'd better be more respectful to the Snow Crystal Spirit. I am the only one in this world who knows where the breeding ground is!"

Narcissus looked at the Snow Crystal Spirit whose face was distorted with pain in Zhu Chengwu's hands, and said to Zhu Chengwu in a deep voice.

"Senior Narcissus, since you are the only one who knows the place where the baby is bred, please take me there as soon as possible! Otherwise, the Snow Crystal Spirit may not be able to hold on for long!" Zhu Chengwu also looked at Narcissus with deep eyes.

Although Narcissus has lived for thousands of years, only the Snow Crystal Spirit has entered Narcissus's heart, and only the Snow Crystal Spirit can slightly restrain and threaten Narcissus.

However, even if Zhu Chengwu now controls the Snow Crystal Spirit, using the Snow Crystal Spirit to contain and threaten Narcissus can only be a temporary measure and cannot be a long-term solution.

Narcissus is too powerful, and over time he will inevitably find the opportunity and chance to rescue Snow Crystal Spirit.

In addition, the Snow Crystal Spirit is also a high-level rare companion spirit of heaven and earth, and has some of the essence of Jade Marrow and Ice Soul.

If time drags on for too long, it is inevitable that Zhu Chengwu will relax his supervision, and Xue Jingling's strength will be restored, so she can cooperate with Narcissus and escape from Zhu Chengwu's control.

Therefore, Zhu Chengwu had to hurry up and confirm the location of the place that Narcissus mentioned was suspected to be the birthplace of the Yang Lei Zhen Yan, and determine whether the high-level rare treasure of heaven and earth bred there was the Yang Lei Zhen Yan.

“I said before that the breeding ground is just an environment that is very similar to the environment for breeding Yang Lei Zhen Yan. As for whether it breeds Yang Lei Zhen Yan or not, I can’t guarantee it!

Marquis Fu'an, I can take you to that place, but you have to promise that once you get there, no matter whether the high-level treasures of heaven and earth bred in that brooding place are Yang Lei Zhen Yan or not, you will release the Snow Crystal Spirit!"

Narcissus looked at Zhu Chengwu with firm eyes, then looked at Xue Jingling, who was being "supported" by Zhu Chengwu and whose face was in pain, and Dai Qian, who was beside her and whose heart was filled with anxiety. She was silent for a long time, and finally said so.

“As long as Senior Shuixian is not deliberately deceiving me, the environment of that breeding ground is really similar to the environment for breeding Yang Lei Zhen Yan, and it is really breeding high-level rare treasures of heaven and earth. Regardless of whether the high-level rare treasures of heaven and earth bred there are Yang Lei Zhen Yan or not, I will keep my word and hand over the Snow Crystal Spirit to you safely!”

Zhu Chengwu understood Narcissus's concerns and answered her accordingly.

To be honest, Zhu Chengwu also has concerns!
He was worried that the high-level rare treasure from heaven and earth bred in the gestation place that Narcissus mentioned was not the Yang Lei Zhen Yan, and that Narcissus was deceiving him.

But Zhu Chengwu had no choice at that time!

Zhu Yuyan's guilty conscience and the appearance of Fan Qinghui... all made the possibility of the existence of Yang Lei Zhenyan in the Yinkui Sect's secret library reduced.

It was not until Narcissus said that high-level treasures of heaven and earth were unique and that he had discovered a place where high-level treasures of heaven and earth were bred that was very similar to the environment for breeding Yang Lei Zhen Yan that the truthfulness of Zhu Yuyan's words fell to the lowest point.

High-level treasures of heaven and earth are unique. This is news that many major forces in this world do not know or have not announced to the public.

Even Zhu Chengwu, who came from the Ming Dynasty royal family Zhu, had never heard of this information from anyone else.

But the accuracy of this information is worth believing!
Because Zhu Chengwu had already reached the same conclusion through deduction from the "Jade Book", but Zhu Chengwu had never announced it to the public.

Narcissus was able to say in front of many human masters, Yangshen, in the palace of the Nanzhu Kingdom that high-level treasures of heaven and earth are unique. This conclusion, which he came to after living for thousands of years as a companion elf of high-level treasures of heaven and earth, was enough to prove his inner urgency at the time and the truthfulness of his words.

Even if Narcissus might be lying, the truthfulness of her words was far superior to that of Zhu Yuyan, whose words were becoming less and less truthful at that time.

For Zhu Chengwu, choosing who to believe is an obvious thing!

"That's great! Let's go!"

After hearing Zhu Chengwu's reply, Narcissus looked at Zhu Chengwu with a restrained deep look.

After that, Narcissus led the team and set off again.

"Senior Xue Jingling, I'm sorry!"

As Zhu Chengwu spoke, he used his hands to repeatedly strike Snow Crystal Spirit's body, including the double balls on her chest and the roots of her thighs. The blazing fire energy directly cut off the energy channels in Snow Crystal Spirit's body, making her completely lose the power to move and resist.

After all, Xue Jingling is an elf of heaven and earth, and his body structure is different from that of ordinary people. Only with such an unreserved and comprehensive isolation can Zhu Chengwu feel temporarily at ease.

Yes, even so, Zhu Chengwu was only temporarily relieved but not completely reassured.

As the spirit of heaven and earth, the essence of the Snow Crystal Spirit is an extremely cold air.

Her body structure is different from that of humans, and her survival nature is also different from that of humans. Zhu Chengwu cannot be sure whether Xue Jingling has any special way to recover from her current injuries.

However, even if Snow Crystal Spirit had some way to recover, she would definitely need more time because of the existence of the blazing sun's fiery energy.
